Pieterson is looking more like Younis Khan of Pakistan in that pic in which he wears a helmet.....
Try Working on his hairstyle & try to apply his unique "FOX-Tail" hairstyle which was a dash of blond colour with Black & try to make his physique as a bit more athletic as Pieterson in Real Life is around 6 ft 5 inches in height with a broad structure.
i am sure by adding his unique hairstyle & a touch on his physique will give him a more distinguished feel in the game overall...
Cheers,

Another thing I noticed is that the upper body is not totally connected to the legs which is slightly unrealistic.
May I have some clarification on the blockyness issue by someone cos the bat handle is like a cuboid and the arms look blocky too...(not that I cud anything, anywhere near as good, just an observation.)
In reality it isnt a really big issue but it is an issue nonetheless
On a plus point the wickets look very nice and the actual kits look very real with just the two gripes and that is that the england three lions logo is slightly too high and the back arm of the kit intrudes on the actual arm unrealistically.
And the final mishap is that the pitch looks too grassy for an international or county pitch they have ridiculously short grass that you cant even see and it looks practically flat. But I would love that as a special feature, with hugely eratic bounce and movement and spin

Manee, your post is pretty ridiculous, man...not being rude, but really, please read over what you wrote and maybe you'll realise...
here's my reasons why i say this:
i) I could make a model that is tens of thousands of polygons and really complex and perfectly detailed etc. but that is not practical for games, because you always have to reduce detail for performance reasons. You must also remember that i am effectively a one man team (aside from some excellent 2d artists on these forums) who's focus for this game was on gameplay, game detail and realistic physics etc. - i never said the graphics would be as great as EA and co. AS it turns out though, i personally am very happy with how the graphics have turned out...if you can make something better for me, please please please do and submit it - i would love to have the best models possible...but also remember you have to animate them and check that they deform properly when animated too, that's very difficult to do, because even if teh model looks great, when you animate it the deformations really can screw things up...
ii) During the game, how many times are you going to be looking that close at the models?? Is it really that important that the bat handle is perfectly rounded? I mean, seriously, what's more important here?? Gameplay or the roundedness of the handle? It is 'blocky' because i need to save polygons (performance reasons) - if you have ever modelled 3d you would know that perfectly rounded objects take significantly more polygons - for example, right now the bat handle may be 20 polygons, if rounded/smoothed would be more like 180. Doesn't sound like much but when you apply this to every feature of the model, you get some full on poly increase
iii) regarding the logos on the kits, you are welcome to make one which is better, please do submit it....
iv) regarding the pitch, do you think i dont know that? C'mon, think about it. There wont just be one pitch type in the game. The pitches are easy to change, really easy. I just haven't done them yet as there are more important things to do right now. The pitches WILL get done later and there will be many differnet types that will depend on the country and weather etc
look, i dont mind constructive criticism, in fact i want to welcome it, cos it is through the criticism that the game can get better and better, but to nitpick tiny little things like this - at this stage of development - is pretty silly...
I've said it before and i'll say it again...you can have the best graphics in the world, but the game is worth nothing if the gameplay sux. My point being, graphics are important, dont get me wrong, but gameplay is the overriding factor. TCP will have good graphics, of course, but it's not going to be it's strongest area.
